Yup. This is a fantastic idea. We are in a slow recession recovery, with high unemployment. Money has never been cheaper to borrow. High speed rail addresses massive amounts of job creation (temporary and permanent), infrastructure development, current infrastructure repair, green development all in one fell swoop
Too bad your Governor turned all that down, and you now have to pay millions for him to borrow money on a state level that the Federal Government was going to give to you out of funds already appropriated.
Have fun with your state tax increase. You're still sucking hard at the teat of Lady Liberty, right? You are still using airplanes, airports, driving on interstate highways, buying OTC and Rx drugs, and food?
You know, if you folks that are so anti-government would just put your money where your mouths are, and give that up, you would decrease demand and maybe achieve your goal (in opposition to the founding fathers) that government doesn't do crap for the common good.
